As I sat in Church the
week before last I was
amazed to see a little
baby in the choir.
It was so fascinating to
watch. We know babies
love music and it has
been 100% proven to
enhance early development of the brain.
I have seen moms use
baby buds on their belly
during pregnancy to
fulfill the musical aspect
of nurturing.
Moms drive their new
babies to Kindermusik
classes to satisfy the
music drive, but this
little choir baby, Garrus,
is seen peeping out of
his mommies front
pack.
It was the absolute best
idea I have seen.
Let me introduce
Garrus and Alicia to
you. Alicia, Garrus's
mother grew up in
362-8335.

owners can prepare for
cold weather by taking
simple
energy
efficiency measures that
will reduce energy
consumption
and
heating bills.
What You Can Do
Install and set a
programmable thermostat. Homeowners can
save an estimated 10
percent per year on
heating costs by using a
programmable thermostat and setting the heat
to run only when theyre
home.
Use sunlight to your
advantage.
During
winter months, take
advantage of sunlight by
opening curtains during
the day to allow the sun
to naturally heat your
home.
Reduce energy for
water heating. Water
heating accounts for
roughly 14 to 18 percent
of most home utility
bills. Reduce costs by
making sure your water
heater is set no higher
than 120 degrees Fahrenheit and wrapping a
water heater jacket
around it if its more
than five years old.
Use a heavy-duty,
clear plastic sheet on a
frame or tape clear
plastic film to the inside
of your window frames.
Make sure the plastic is
sealed tightly to the
frame to help reduce
infiltration.
Install tight-fitting,
insulating drapes or
shades on windows that
feel drafty after weatherizing.
When using the oven,
resist the temptation to
open the door to check
on a dishs progress.
Every time you do, the
temperature inside is
reduced by as much as
25 degrees, forcing it to
work even harder (and
use more energy) to get
back to the proper cooking temperature.
Keep your fireplace
damper closed unless a
fire is burning.
Keeping the damper
open is like keeping a
window wide open; it
lets warm air go right up
the chimney.
Have a technician
inspect and confirm that
your appliances are
running as efficiently as
possible, so you can
conserve fuel and save
money.
Hire a professional to
maintain your heating
system. Arrange for
annual
maintenance
with a qualified technician. This includes
checking the airflow
over the coil, checking
that the combustion
process
and
heat
exchanger are operating
safely, and ensuring
proper airflow to each
room.
Clean the air filters
once a month and
replace them regularly.
Consider purchasing
a propane generator.
When other power
sources fail, a propane
generator can keep your
house operating without
interruption. Propane is
an approved clean alternative fuel under the
Clean Air Act. Its a
nontoxic, Americanmade fuel that doesnt

Hope toy shop can help
make a childs Christmas a merry one. Local
residents who donate a
new, unwrapped toy
have the comfort of
knowing that they
contributed to the joy of
children in our own
community on what
should always be a very
special day. That, to
me, is the spirit of
Christmas we all want
to share.
The annual Season of
Hope Toy Drive has
served thousands of
children in Sussex
County for many years.
The initiative solicits
donations
from
individuals, businesses,
civic
organizations,
schools, youth groups,

Educators, counselors,
county officials and
concerned citizens took
part in a special conference in October that
focused on drug trends
in Warren County, and
elsewhere..
The Coalition for
Healthy and Safe Communities, a program of
the Family Guidance
Center
of
Warren
County, in association
with the Warren County
Prosecutor's
Office,

the Stigma, at Centenary College.
Over 75 people, with
varying backgrounds
and interests, attended
the event that featured
several speakers.
The purpose of the
conference was to bring
the
community
together to begin to
understand addiction,
the stigma attached and
to develop a comprehensive county-wide

( N A P S I ) Yo u r
adopted pet could be
named in an upcoming
novel, thanks to a
unique contest.
Pet parents are invited
to submit their pets
adoption story and tell
Nicholas
Sparksperhaps best known for
such novels as The
Notebook, The Best
of Me and The
Longest Rideabout
the effect their adopted
pet has had on their
lives. Sparks will select
the most heartwarming
adoption story and the
winners adopted pet
will be named in one of
his upcoming novels.
The winning story will
also be featured on
Sparkss website, along
with an introduction by
the author.
Not many people know
this about Sparks, but he
has a long-standing love
for shelter pets.
Growing up, I always
had adopted dogs, and
adopting pets is something my family has
done for years. We think
adopting from a shelter
is an incredible opportunity to bring a pet into
your home and find a
lifelong companion,
said Sparks.
Sparks and his family
currently have three
dogs at homeSusie,
Boomer and Bowho
were all adopted from
shelters. Each of the
dogs has a unique story
and interesting personality quirks that drew
Sparks to them.
Susie, for example, is a

professor of visual art at

he began his teaching
career more than 30
